x x 0.23 nm FWHM Spectrum of HGHG and SASE at 266 nm HGHG and SASE measured spectra under same electron beam conditions HGHG spectral brightness is 2x105 timeslarger than SASE spectral brightness SASE spectrum is calculated with GENESIS by H. Loos after 20 m of the NISUS structure to have a fair comparison with HGHG SASE spectral brightness would still be lower than HGHG by an order of magnitude

Summary & Conclusions • Gain of DUV-FEL at 266 nm has been studied for various seed laser powers. HGHG FEL saturates at the middle of the 10 m long NISUS wiggler • Spectrum of HGHG is measured to be narrow compare to SASE spectrum (2.3 Å) • Output energy is measured to be stable (7% RMS) which is mainly limited by the accelerator performance • Pulse length is measured to be 0.6 - 1 ps which proves that HGHG output is temporally nearly Fourier transform limited • The 3rd harmonic (88nm) of the HGHG is used in a chemistry experiment
